On Aug 21, 2017, Doreen Virtue PhD posted this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKVAz… about her conversion to Christianity. Of course the US is a country of Religious Freedom where we celebrate everybody’s right to explore religion anyway they want. As a person who attended Unitarian Universalist Churches I strongly support the exploration of religions. Personally, I believe in Jesus but I don’t use the Christian label because of the history of Christianity that includes burning witches and the genocide of Native American people. As a Native American of the Mohican tribe I can not support the term Christianity that was forced upon Native Americans by abducting Native American children and throwing them in Boarding Schools with the sole purpose of destroying Indianess. As a Native American Witch who believes in Jesus but not the persecution of Witches by those called Christians I refuse to claim myself as a Christian. Even though I have very strong beliefs against Christianity I don’t have a problem with Jesus himself. Jesus wasn’t a Christian he was Jewish. Jesus lived a life of love and compassion which is what I value. For a long time, I felt very supported by Doreen Virtue by her spiritual path as a spiritual teacher which I looked up to. However, now I fear that in the process of claiming Christianity has Doreen Virtue also claimed Christianity’s hatred against witches? If I would introduce myself to Doreen Virtue as a Native American Witch, would she be against me for being a witch like so many other Christians before her? I listened to Doreen’s video very carefully and I have yet to hear Doreen’s Virtue’s public views now on witches through her Christian eyes. So I wonder if she is also against witches now that she is a Christian? As a spiritual teacher does Doreen now teach against witches?
